A Peruvian ''whistling jug"

Tulane museum, New Orleans, pos
sesses a Peruvian ''whistling Jug which
dates from the Incas. 1t resembles two
squatty, flattened bottles connected by a
bar between the necks and below by a
pipe one inch and a half in diameter.
One ends above with an open brandy
bottle mouth and the other in the form
of a grotesque human head. The only
hole in the latter is a small orifice at the
back of the head. On pouring water
into the open mouth till both jugs are
filled above the level of the connecting
tube the air remaining in the closed side
is forced out at the small orifce, and,
striking the thin plate between the two
openings, produces a clear, shrill whistle.
By tipping the half filed vessel in various
directions various sounds are emitted
some of the most startling, weird char
acter.-Chicago News.

GAME OF LAWN TENNIS.
SOMETHING ABOUT 1.-THE MODEST
OF OUTDOOR GAMES"

Its Strong and Weak Points-Its PoPu-
Iarity-Everybody Can Play It-Courts
and ACCOMPLISHMENTS Gowns, Hats and
shoes-Its Facilities for Filtration.
Lawn tennis is an offshoot of the game of
tennis, the most famous and difficult of games
OF ball 1t is an adaptation to suit outdoor
courts, which are M arked out on turf or
on smooth ground. 1t is said to have been
invented long ago; but within recent years it
has been popularized. 1t is a game either for
two, three or four players. For single handed
games the court is twenty-seven feet wide
and se~venty-eight feet long. The net, which
divides it across the middle, is three feet and
n half high at the posts which brace it up
and three feet at the center. The double
court, for three or -four handed games, is
thirty six feet wide.
Tennis clubs among persons of leisure exist
all over the country. Their members, though
10y no means all expert players, unite in pro-
nouncing lawn tennis the "grandest and no
blcst of outdoor games" Whyl Because it
arouses in the players a lively interest, and is
"A game at which everybody can play"
Ladiesi "0h, bless you, yes. Some ladies
are number one players; but very few,
though. But then few ladies are experts in
any game. The trouble is they rarely buckle
right down to playing a game for all it is
worth. They do not educate the eye to be
quick. They don't think rapidly, and their
muscular movements are not so quick and
agile as men's-all for lack of practice, too
And they are less patient in games than men
though in the hard lines of real life their pa
thence ranks first"

STARTING LATE.

But is it not a game that requires consid-
cradle outlay of physical strength
Yes, of course" said the young man who
is authority on tennis. at takes strength as
well as some skill to play tennis, and ladies
can injure themselves if they don't exercise
some Judgment; but they can do the same in
dancing, rowing, walking, riding-any form
of recreation. -Four games a day are all the
strongest young lady ought to play, and all
the sensible one will play"
"If judgment is used is avn ennis a bene-
fetal game physicallyl"
"None better. 1t exercises all the muscles
How about the right arm; is it not unduly
developed, and isn't there such a thing as a
ennis lbowf'
L be sure. The right arm gets more than
its share of development: but so it does
straight along through life. And as for the
lawn tennis elbow, l will admit it; but it is
not unavoidable Judgment, Judgment,
judgment, and you will avoid it."
"FlirtationIn
"Where is the game that affords it notl
But lawn tennis absorbs your mind too much
to admit of sentimental shines while it is
going on. Cupid takes a back seat and calmly
awaits a more propitious season. Display of
athletic grace and ability goes away ahead of
the tender passion in tennis"
"Are good players born or made?"
"Born, l think. Certain mental and physi-
cal qualities are necessary to good players.
There is much in practice, but more in ma
ture. We all know persons who could not
be taught to sing in a thousand years"
"Dresslr
"Well, for ladies, something short in the
skirt, and not heavy. The rule is, a long dress
will spoil your play, and the play will spoil
your long dress Low cut shoes with soles Of
India rubber, and a small hat are necessary.
No bracelets, bangles. or things that get in
the way are allowable. Soft felt hats in
white, red and blue, in sailor shape, and also
high crow with rolling brims, are much in
vogue. Even finger rings are discarded.
They raise blisters by contact with the bat. :"
ado professionals take up avn tennisf'
mo; hat is probably why it retains its
popularity so long. 1t is e%minently n gentle
mems game. Professionals nave not degraded

IenU, OF UnNfOJ-
omy will be necessary. No patient has sur
vived the latter operation thus far in medical
practice.
The great Importance of Frederick Viii
liams illness is shown by the fact that his
aged father cannot long be expected to sur
vive. Prince William, eldest son of our
subject and his natural successor, holds the
confidence of the German people in a remark
able degree. He is a favorite pupil of Moltke,
and fagorably disposed to the Bismarclis.
As an officer has been a hard worker, and is
held in great esteem by the army. Should he
by the death of his father succeed the vener-
able emperor the peaceful policy of the aged
monarch and his son, the crown prince, will
no doubt be forsaken. War with France
would be almost sure to follow.
The earnest character and eminent talents
of j frederick William were developed under
excellent masters, among others Ernest Cur
tins, who accompanied him to the University
of Bonn, where the prince was matriculated
in the law faculty. After the completion of
his education the prince visited several for
eign countries, among others England,
where he married the princess royal,
eldest daughter of Queen Victoria, on
Jan. %, 1858, with the royal appreciation
of both nations. By this union are two sons
and four daughters.
Since his father assembled the throne the
crown prince has taken part in the most i'm
portant affairs of state. He served in the
Danish campaign in a subordinate capacity,
but with such ability that the king intrusted
him to an important task in the war with
Austria in 1866, viz, the command of the left
Prussian wing, operating in and from Silesia.
In the Franco-Prussian war, 1S70-71, the
crown prince acted n very conspicuous part
as commander of the troops of Bavaria, Wur-
temberg and Baden. He was present at
Sedan, August, 1870, and was made field
marshal two months after by his father. Dur
ing the emperor's illness caused by an assas-
sins shot in 1873 his public functions were
ably performed by the crown prince.

DR.. Barkan thinks the European noun
tains are to be preferred to those of
America by those who climb for their
health, principally on the ground that
better paths are provided. He makes an
exception to this rule in favor of the
Adirondacks and some other mountains
in the eastern states. In organizing
mountain parties everything should, so
far as possible, be previously arranged.
Regulations should be established as to
the gradual increase in the extent of the
daily a~scents, the periods of rest, the pro-
lection of the feet and other parts of the
body against chatting and the formation
of blisters.-New York Post.
